Create, duplicate, and switch between multiple profiles of settings.

SwitchUp is a unique application that allows you to create, duplicate, and switch between multiple profiles of settings (preferences and data) for almost any application.

It's like a multi-user environment for every application.

Documents
  • Drag an app to SwitchUp to create a document.
  • A document can have an unlimited number of profiles.
  • Fine-tune SwitchUp's behavior with per-document settings.
Profiles
  • Profiles contain the data that make up the settings for a given app.
  • Only one profile is active at a time.
  • Lock and restore favorite settings.
  • Test and play with confidence.
SwitchUp Trial Details

The SwitchUp trial allows you to create an unlimited number of documents and profiles. There is a short delay when switching profiles and a reminder that you should purchase a license for continued use.

You will not see this message or delay when SwitchUp is licensed or when using SwitchUp with any Irradiated Software apps (e.g. Cinch, SizeUp, iClip, Tickets, etc).
